As for Cha, I haven't seen anyone cast DI on a monk so far. I can't imagine playing 99.99% of your game time with more charisma, getting very little value from it, just so on that 0.01% of the time you can maybe get saved from dying by a DI.

There's min-maxing and there's "min-maxing."

I agree, CHA is only if you want to go full BiS and maximize your points, but it's not really necessary. I'd still do 20 STA so I can save a buff slot by not needing Riotous Health.

One could have the shaman cast Str and Dex and then FOS for a similar effect, I suppose.

Indeed, you'll just be using 1 extra buff slot, which isn't the end of the world. You'll still be at basically 200 STR and DEX without gear in that scenario.
